Submitted By a Concerned Troy Parent–
Troy High School teachers abruptly close doors to students and make the parents sign off on it.
Are the students caught in the middle of a contract dispute between the teachers’ union and FJUHSD?
This is just one of many forms that came home with the students from Troy teachers yesterday.
Troy teachers are now:
Unavailable for help before or after school
Unavailable for tutoring before or after school
Unavailable to write letters of recommendation for colleges or scholarships
Unavailable for AP testing review before or after class time
Teachers have decided that they will no longer be available to help the student outside of their contracted work hours.
Is the unavailability due to a union contract dispute?
Before break teachers were wearing red to protest the lack of a contract.
Some, many, or all explained to the students, during class time, why they were protesting.
The understanding was that their teaching salaries were not enough. So when it is ever enough? You be the judge. Here is the salary list for the district.
The District’s school year consists of 180 instructional days of 372 minutes each-6.2 hours a day 180 days a year. Mr. Bainter, for example had total compensation of $136, 221 for 2014 and makes $122 per hour in total compensation if you do the math. Guess it is not enough for him or the rest of them for that matter.
Keep in mind that they do not work the whole year and the wages/total compensation are unsustainable: http://www.capoliticalreview.com/capoliticalnewsandviews/calstrs-teachers-retirement-pension-system-in-deep-trouble/#respond
“Using the State accounting system for pensions, CalSTRS, the teacher retirement plan, had a $8.9 billion increase in liability, bringing it to an admitted unsustainable $67.3 billion. Using Federal pension accounting systems, the real unfunded liability is over $170 billion—and growing. At some point the taxpayers will be forced, by law, to bail out another government failure.”
Teachers want more, but are totally divorced from the fiscal reality.
Teachers want more and will totally turn their backs on the students in order to have their ‘unsustainable’ demands met. Looks like Troy teachers are doing just that.

How much do you make a day, and how useless is your profession?

How dangerous is forcing the lies of evolution, the false religion of science, common core, communism, moral relativism, vaccines and the sterilizing wireless exposure? That is what they are all involved in for their paltry salary. Why won’t they speak up to protect the children? Just about everything these teachers inculcate into these children is a flat out lie.
The question is not how useless a non government employee’s job is but rather how dangerous is a government minion’s job to the public. I would argue that the teaching profession is now dead. They have become facilitators with all the technology and have now become a huge liability to society.
Teachers are major threat to everyone’s financial future due to the unsustainable compensation and retirement obligations that they continue to demand.
Teachers are major threat to the moral fabric of our society by actively going along with the secular humanist education system’s goal of removing God and morality from children’s lives.
Teachers are major threat to the nations political future by aiding and abetting the evisceration of the vestiges of our Nations roots and heritage through the liberal revisionist curriculum being rammed down our children’s throats.
Teachers are major threat to every child’s reproductive health with their complicity and tacit approval of the wireless technology programs that are designed to sterilize the children and rob them of their posterity.
Teachers are major threat to everyone’s critical thinking skills with their walking lockstep with all the agendas as they relate to the political, moral, reproductive, socio economic, and scientific fraud that they are promoting as gospel truth through forced repetition on a massive basis.
You will know a tree by its fruit. Look around at the students, look around at the teachers. Where are they when it comes to speaking out against any of this?
The teachers are hostages to their paltry paychecks and the students are hostages to the grades that will prove meaningless very shortly.
There are only a few things that really matter in this life. One is where you go when you die, another is how long before you do, and finally who and what you leave behind. With the wireless, vaccine, and evolution agendas in the schools, I read that three strikes for the unsuspecting children who are ostensibly there to learn but that is the furthest thing from the truth.
Teachers are now dangerous to the pyco

Aww, want to read me bed-time stories until I fall asleep?

Any teacher with any integrity and love for their profession would leave their teaching job if they were to look honestly at the harm they are doing to students.

I can tell you that my profession doesn’t EVER involve molesting innocent children that I’m paid by their parents to teach, and then expect my union to work overtime to keep it from the same parents who paid my salary…

Depravity as exhibited against children — right in our own backyard.

Huh. So all teachers are molesters? I’m just trying to follow your logic.

Logic?
That wouldn’t be fighting fire with fire would it?
Perhaps you can unravel Tell me the logic about $100,000 a year Teachers, both physically and metaphorically turning their backs on the unsuspecting children, who are at one of life’s most critical junctures by the way, in order to demand higher wages?
What’s logical about that?

“Logic?

Indeed.

What do you think is the appropriate compensation for a teacher?
#14 by Anonymous on January 22, 2016 - 12:12 am
If they can produce results in the students they teach, I’d say $60 K per year.
The real problem with that is our schools our loaded with Teachers I’ve watched over the years that their heart isn’t in it and they mail it in.
Unfortunately, they’re also usually the union stewards of their schools, which makes it literally impossible to get rid of them despite up to 50 % of the kids failing their classes.
And let’s not forget the long stare and awkward silence us parents receive from the Teachers when we ask them why our kids grades haven’t been updated online in over a month?
And if you really want a good laugh, ask one of the Administrators t the schools to hold one of their Teachers accountable for updating the students grades, and then watch them tell you straight faced that the Teachers union won’t allow them to do that.

Whatever that compensation number is, it must be sustainable.
NONE of it is sustainable and we are dug in deep.

Sorry the 1st link was only attempted murder. My bad. The charge was actually increased to murder after the Phys. Ed Teacher’s lover died from her gunshot wounds.

Really? Just trying to follow logic or take the discussion in an entirely different direction?
Where does it say that all teachers are molesters?
by-the-way, IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE TO HAVE ANY TEACHERS MOLESTING STUDENTS.
